I am a second year PhD student in Mathematics and an NSF Graduate Research Fellow at the University of Pennsylvania. I am co-advised by Mona Merling and Kirsten Wickelgren. Previously I was an undergraduate at Johns Hopkins University. I am interested in algebraic topology, particularly $\textbf{A}^1$-homotopy theory.

My CV is here.

Fall 2019, Mona Merling and I will be organizing the inaugural Directed Reading Program at Penn. In 2018, I wrote some expository notes on Constructing The Unstable Motivic Homotopy Category Using $(\infty,1)$-Categories, supervised by Emily Riehl and Kirsten Wickelgren. In fall 2018, I ran a seminar on homotopy theory and algebraic $K$-theory with Qinyung Zeng and Perry Hart.
